"A Man's a Man for all that!" - Rabbie Burns

"Religion? No thanks. I prefer not to outsource my brainwashing."
Trying to get your average Joe creationist to understand the phrase scientific theory is as hard as getting a fish to enjoy mountaineering. Its an unimagined world for them - it requires a complete reversal of their normal modes of thinking and being. The fact that humans could explain the complexities of this world without a creating God is a world view they cannot grasp. It's like asking a tuna if it appreciates the view from the top of Mount Everest.

The big conspiracy

It is time to look at the evidence of the biggest, most hidden conspiracy of them all. This conspiracy is so vast that you may even find that you have family or neighbours who have been drawn within its vast tentacles.

This conspiracy comes from the heart of capitalism, it is a conspiracy of the new entreprenours. These conspiracists have taken over and distorted our news and current affairs media and they are increasingly succesful in shaping the view that many of us have about what is happening in the world.

Now lets be clear at the start. We are not talking here about a David Icke type conspiracy of extra-dimensional reptilian beings. We hold no personal antipathy forDavid Icke and can only be thankful that his paranoia is so compartmentalised and channelled that he is otherwise able to live a meaningful and happy life. No, what we are talking about is a real life walking talking conspiracy that, if not criminal is, at minimum, profoundly immoral and corrupt. It is a conspiracy that aims to keep our populations in thrall and to extract money from them.

Let us take a journey into the heart of this conspiracy. It is not difficult. In fact the most amazing thing about this conspiracy is that the evidence of it has been staring us all in the face for so long. yet we have been blind to this evidence.

Let us start with Loose Change which describes itself as "the independent documentary that has grown from a cult following to a grassroots organism that can no longer be contained" and claims that it is dedicated to "The central premise ... that the United States Government was, at the very least, criminally negligent in allowing the attacks of September 11th, 2001 to occur."

But, for Loose change, this is not enough because;
"one might come to the startling conclusion that our own government might have been directly responsible for the attacks themselves."
So concerned is Loose Change with the truth that they "highly encourage you to take it upon yourself to research the events of 9/11 for yourself and come to your own conclusions."

Well, did you spot it? Did you spot the evidence of the conspiracy? We bet that you didn't.
Let us repeat the quote from the first lines of their web site - "the independent documentary that has grown from a cult following to a grassroots organism that can no longer be contained".

Do you see it yet? No? Ok lets follow some of the main links on their front page. Follow the "company" link. Then have a little look at their "Store".

The evidence is there and plain to see - but there are thousands of people who visit such sites and fail to see what is under their noses. Let us spell it out in the plainest words.

There is a big conspiracy. This conspiracy is that the internet "savvy" know that there is money to be made from the internet. To make such money you need to be able to create and ride a wave of internet user interest in what you are selling. The conspiracy theorists know this. Many of them are technically savvy young men desparate to make their mark in this electronic marketplace. Put that together with a public around the world which is primed to accept stories of conspiracy and plot and which increasingly seems to have turned away from rational debate towards a diet of news trivia and "magical " thinking. What do you have? You have a situation ripe for exploitation by "conspiracy theorists" whose main aim is often not to explore the truth of events but to make a name for themselves and , in the process, turn a buck.

So the next time you are fed one of these conspiracy stories ask yourself if the real conspiracy is being reported - ask yourself - who benefits from this?
